Fine-tuning your studying strategy while you earn a degree
August 23, 2012
As a mom, you know how difficult it can be to find downtime to study once you enroll in a degree program. That being said, you'll need to use every precious moment you can get to effectively study and learn your course material.
If you've never had a solid studying routine, you might have found it tough come exam time. However, it's never too late to fine-tune your strategy and make earning your degree a bit easier.
PsychCentral.com suggests re-examining where you study if you feel that your efforts have been inefficent. If you regularly study in an area of your home where you're surrounded by distractions, you might not be making the most of your time.
StudentHacks.org states that knowing when you learn best can also help. For instance, if you're sharp in the morning, take advantage of this time once the kids go to school to cram. In the end, you can improve your chances of absorbing more information.
Luckily, grants for parents and scholarships for moms are giving parents one less thing to worry about while they study - their finances.
